Hemangioma on baby's hand

Everyone knows that hemangioma is a benign tumor, but many parents will feel very nervous and anxious if their baby suffers from hemangioma. When a baby is found to have hemangioma, he should be taken to the hospital for examination in time, and attention should also be paid to the diet. If the baby is breastfeeding, the mother must eat some foods that help relieve hemangioma, and also be careful not to eat spicy and irritating foods.

Treatment methods for hemangiomas on babies' hands : 1. Surgical treatment: Surgery is the use of surgical methods to remove the diseased tissue to achieve the treatment goal of hemangiomas. However, in general, the hemangioma lesion area is rich in blood vessels and has a large blood volume, and the amount of bleeding during surgery is extremely large, often causing severe hemorrhagic shock. A large amount of whole blood needs to be transfused during the operation, making the operation difficult and highly dangerous. 2. The principle of laser treatment is a high-temperature superficial burn that coagulates the hemangioma tissue and achieves the purpose of treating the hemangioma. However, the depth of laser treatment is generally controlled within 0.2-0.4mm of the surface skin. If it exceeds 0.4mm, obvious scars will be produced, and deep hemangiomas may easily cause bleeding and scar deformities. Therefore, traditional lasers are not suitable for the treatment of deeper cavernous hemangiomas, racemose hemangiomas, lymphangiomas, strawberry hemangiomas, and mixed hemangiomas, so they cannot be widely promoted.

3. Hormone therapy Hormone therapy is a method of taking adrenal cortex hormones orally. Although a small number of patients can achieve satisfactory therapeutic effects from oral corticosteroids, this therapy has significant side effects and should not be used casually. The pros and cons should be weighed. 4. Isotope therapy Isotope is a highly radioactive substance that can cause great harm to the human body. Large amounts of radiation will kill white blood cells, weaken the body's hematopoietic function and reduce immunity. Isotopes can only have a certain effect on hemangiomas on a small area of the body surface. They will not have a good therapeutic effect on hemangiomas deep under the skin and will leave scars. In addition, the areas treated with isotopes will leave a large amount of spots or discoloration (such as vitiligo).

Diet for babies with hemangiomas on their hands First of all, the baby should be given a diversified diet, which should include both animal and plant foods, that is, a mixture of various seasonings such as grains, beans, meat, eggs, milk, vegetables, fruits, oils and sugars. The body's demand for various nutrients should be in a certain ratio. Since there is a relationship of mutual coordination and mutual restraint between the various nutrients taken into the human body, if the intake of various nutrients is excessive, it will not only be unhelpful to infantile hemangioma patients, but may even be harmful. In addition, balanced nutrition is important for infantile hemangioma, and parents must handle it with caution. According to our country's nutrition results, children do not get enough vitamins, A, calcium, iron and iodine. The main reason is the unreasonable dietary structure, so in order to achieve balanced nutrition and not affect the treatment of infantile hemangioma, proper adjustment is required. The intake of various dietary nutrients for patients with infantile hemangioma should be selected within a reasonable range. Too little intake will cause nutrient deficiency, while too much intake will cause side effects and be detrimental to the baby's health.
